CMC
Daniel joined Dark Horse Consulting in 2025, bringing CMC expertise in early- and late-stage gene therapy. His experience spans process & analytical development, tech transfer, comparability, regulatory authorship, and project leadership.
Before joining Dark Horse Consulting, Daniel spent several years at AviadoBio, where he primarily led the CMC strategy for the company’s lead AAV program, AVB-101. Over increasing positions, he executed broad CMC development, comparability planning, clinical trial supply, COGs modelling, and commercialisation readiness activities. During his time at AviadoBio, he also led the development of a novel medical device designed for spinal delivery of gene therapies.
In 2019, Daniel joined the CMC-MSAT team at MeiraGTx and was pivotal in establishing the initial downscale manufacturing process and subsequent tech transfer of their AAV assets into GMP. To support an expanding pipeline, Daniel's focus then turned to process intensification, COGs optimisation and improving operational efficiencies.
Daniel's career began in 2016 at Pall Corporation where he supported the development of novel bioprocessing technologies, as well as the adaptation of modality-agnostic equipment to the emerging needs of cell and gene therapies. While at Pall Corporation, he also managed the Continuous Processing Consortium program, a cross-company initiative to develop a continuous, integrated, biologics manufacturing platform.
